Under Fire Alarm, there are twenty-four features given consideration. How- ever, Fire Alarm represents 550 points or 11% of the total grad- ing. Under Building laws, lack of enforcement is considered equivalent to absence of law. Un - ,der Structural Conditions there are fourteen features considered and thev indicate that a pretty thorough examination of a com- munity is made during the appli- cation of the grading schedule. We have gone into quite some detail for the sole purpose of, making clear two or three points in the connection with grading: FIRST --that most of the -features entering into the grading are be- yond the scope of the fire de- partment to help. SECOND—that under some conditions, the fire department might be improved considerably and still not elimin ate enough deficiency points to alter the classification of a com- munity.

To Start Chimney At the present time the con- tractors are several weeks behind schedule due to the storms and cold weather however, the forms are up and when the weather breaks they feel that they will be able to catch up. Next week, construction is to start on the 150 foot chimney. The Board of Education and Superintendent of Schools are -going ahead with plans for edu- cational advancement in the area and according to George E. Car- rothers, University of Michigan Bureau of Cooperation with Edu- cational Institutions, they are planning wisely. Mr. Carrothers has the final say on the approval of Livonia High School in the NoA Central Asscciation and his department is the accrediting agency in the State. The Science Department will be one of the best equipped in this locality and; commercial, col- lege preparatory and general courses will be offered. Languag- es to be on the curriculum are Latin and Spanish. ' One of the first steps taken to bring a high school to the Town- ship: was a letter from Carson Johnston to Ralph Randall who was Secretary of Board 6 in Li- vonia. This letter written in 1942 suggested the consoli•daton of schcols in the locality, which ,had the approval of the Wayne Coun- ty School Commission.

The Freshman dance last Friday evening in the Plym- outh High School gymnasium turned out to be a success. The fellas and gals whom I saw among the crowd were Jack Car- ney, Phil Barnes, Gerald Salow, Sally Holcomb, Dave Heinzman, Russ Hasselbach, Dick Wylie, Ruth Balkema, Bruce. McGregor, Bev Balsley, Marvin Thayer, Lar- ney O'Hara, Brian Coates, Betty Tubbergen, Mary Rolen, Joe Cic- cirelli, Jerry VanTassel, Jean Gil- lies, Lucille Pitts, Don MacGreg- or, Larry Bentley, George Trinka, Edna Newton, Larry Mack, Roger Kidston, Martin Kreger, Jim and Bob Wagenschutz, Barb Good - bold, Wally Gardner and Betty Mino. Bob Newsted's orchestra, formerly Frank •Santo's orchestra, gave out with the music. It seems as though the two day storm last week pleased the stu- dents of many schools in and around the township as all the schools were closed on account of transportation etc. Yes, the fourth and fifth days of Spring were not "Springy" but "wintry" instead! Because of this two-day vaca- tion, one day of Easter vacation is to be cut at Plymouth high school. This is very displeasing to the students. P.H.S. bowed way down in a non-league track meet at Ann Arbor High School last Friday afternoon. Considering that Ann Arbor School is a class A team, and that. Plymouth is only class B, they weren't too ;bad. The only first places taken by P.H.S. were: pole vaulting, which was taken by Jim Wagenschutz of Livonia, who attained a height of 10'6"; the half mile, which was won by Lee Weathers of Plym- outh; the high. jump, which was taken by Bernard Terris of Li- vonia. The final score of the meet was 21-72. Bob and Ray Case of Livonia bought themselves a "29" Ford last week. No more using their dad's car! Well, I uess that's all that's in the teen-age spotlight for this week guys and gals. See you next week. H. P. Bendien Speaker At Horticultural Meeting H. P. Bendien from Naardin, Holland spoke at the Livonia Branch of the Michigan Horticul- tural Society about his home land, Holland, on Wednesday, March 26. Mr. Bendien showed tech- nicolor movies of the flower in- dustry, landscaping, Melds of tulips, and the many winter sports of Holland. He talked of the conditions in that country both of the present and during the war. Mr. Bendien, and his wife, who have been visit- ing the United States for the past three months, speak English very well because they were required to take it in school. Mrs. A. T. Peterson announced that this meeting was the most outstanding of the year.

Harry S. Wolfe Livonia Township Clerk Page 8 L I V O N I A N Wednesday, April 2, 1947 James Rossman Honored At Newburg School Assembly James Rossman, principal of Newburg, who is leaving at this time to become superintendent of the Pennfield Ariculturai Schools, thought that the students of New- burg would like to know a little about the Pennfield Township, so he describes it as being located directly west of Livonia Township with the Base Line as its north- ern :boundry and the city of Bat- tle Creek as part of its southern and western boundaries. The topography of Pennfield is very interesting ranging from level productive land to swamps and hills. The Battle Creek River flows through the township. There are several lakes among the hills. The Grand Trunk Railroad passes alongside the Battle Creek River. There are also several unsightly high tension lines. A large part of the district is rural, however, there are sub- divisions where population is con- centrated. One has difficulty tell- ing the division line .between Bat- tle Creek and Pennfield Town- ship because that corner of the township is completly occupied with homes. There are seven one room and two three room schools. One of the building was constructed with coblesones in 1,839 and is still be- ing used daily. The district has a fifteen acre school site near the center of the district. They have planned to build a new school upon this site to accommodate all children in the district, however, war, finances, etc. have held this project up. The growth in popula- tion has made it necessary to transport all high school children and about two hundred elemen- tary children to other school dis- tricts. There are about '900 chil- dren on the school census with nearly 750 attending school. Mr. Rossman says that he can- not perdict the future of the Penn - field school system, because that will depend largely upon the people, however, he has faith in the human race and is willing to sacrifice security in Livonia town- ship to accept the challege of working with the Pennfield peo- ple to plan for 'better opportun- ities for their children. He also stated, "It is with ex- treme regret that I leave Liv- onia Township schools at this time, but circumstances have caused me to make this decision." On the first day of spring the students at Newburg Junior High gave Mr. Rossman a farewell par- ty at school. Two plays were pre- sented by the dramatics classes and several Amateur Acts were presented by various students. Refreshments of ice-cream, milk and cake bearing the message "Good Luck, Mr. Rossman" were enjoyed by all students, cooks P L A INNI N Beer - Liquor - Wine ED.

Joann Meerman, a :camera fan, stood ready with her flash bulb and camera to take This picture as he was unwrapping gift. He then thanked the group for the party and gift stating that he hoped the students would not forget the in- struction he hade given them and that he could be proud of their success in the future.

OUR THANKS The boys and girls on Bus No. 7 (Mr. Hartmann's bus) from Livonia Township who attend Plymouth High School wish to express their appreciation for the kindness of Mrs. Lawrence Aubert, of 35217 Five Mile Road, when she invited the boys and girls to come into her home for hot coffee when their bus was unable to continue to school. Mr. Hans Hartmann, the busdriver, tried to summon help by way of the telephone but met with defeat due to the fact that fifteen others were on the line. When help finally did arrive after a wait'of two and a half hours, we all bid goodbye to Mrs. Aubert, who said she had been very happy to have had the opportunity to entertain us.
